Mizra () is a kibbutz in northern Israel. Located between Afula and Nazareth, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In it had a population of .

==History== Kibbutz Mizra was established during Hanukkah in 1923 by the first immigrants of the Third Aliyah. It was founded on the lands of the Palestinian Arab village of Rub al-Nasra, which were purchased from the Sursock family, a major absentee landowner of Lebanese origin. The inhabitants, approximately 50 families, were tenants and became dispossessed. The village was one of at least 20 Palestinian Arab villages that disappeared in the early 20th century due to Jewish land purchases and settlement in the Jezreel Valley (Marj ibn Amer).
